Ebbett Toyota
Meet the team
Tony Coutinho
CEO
I am third generation in the motor industry, starting my career in our family business in South Africa. Along the way I’ve been very fortunate, working with some of the very best in the industry. I have performed a wide range of roles from Apprentice Technician through to General Manager of a large dealer group. I learnt early on that success comes from the quality of the people around you and the clarity of each team member’s contribution to the goal. I am thrilled to be CEO and shareholder of Ebbett Toyota, it’s a business with a strong reputation and a fantastic team, dedicated to customer satisfaction. It’s a real privilege to be part of New Zealand’s largest vehicle brand and delivering on its unrivalled customer experience. I look forward to meeting all our customers soon and if I can be of any service please just get in touch on the links above.

Hi my name’s Rawiri, but everyone calls me Ra. I take pride in the fact that I am born and raised in Te Awamutu and enjoy its people and friendly atmosphere. My background is in construction but I recently moved to Sales to better suit my outgoing personality. I grew up with Toyotas and I have always had a passion for motor vehicles. I look forward to meeting new and existing clients to help them find the perfect vehicle to suit their lifestyle.
